>Please look at my recent web-shot album.  I have these brake handles and >I believe they cam from a set of Mafac brakes.  However the top is flat, there is no logo, the handle and top pins are peened shut.  The sweep is more pronounced and the profile thinner.  Are these Mafac (not LeFol), orare these Gloria???    http://sports.webshots.com/album/576198676NvBmcH      Bruce
